BonTexasNY Posted March 29 #118126 Share Posted March 29 One of my friend's dropped this off yesterday to cheer me up with get well wishes. A new lily came out today and a 3rd is almost ready to open. This morning she dropped off home made blueberry filled pastries still warm from the oven. It sure brought a smile to my face. I'm going to give her a goody bag of nice items from Bath and Body Works. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firefly333 Posted March 29 #118130 Share Posted March 29 (edited) What surprises me is that you can buy a house with acerage for what to me seems very reasonable within 10 miles of PC. Lots of single family homes on water and canals. I saw one really nice one on 2 acres. I saw this price and clicked to see why the price was so high, the house looks ordinary. It's on 4.96 acres! This would have been a dream if I was younger to have more land so close to everything. I wouldnt want a pool though and almost every house seems to have a pool. 5 acres, house and pool. ..

FromSea2ShiningSea Posted March 29 #118133 Share Posted March 29 Day 4- 3/29 Today’s adventure takes us to Hiroshima. We take the ferry over from Miyajima, take the train and then catch a bus for our first stop…Costco. Whenever we travel to new places, we always try to visit their local Costco’s. It is always interesting to check out all the different merchandise that they carry. Here is just a few samples of what I have not seen at our local Costco. Next is a visit to Peace Memorial Park The Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall with its iconic green dome that sustained major damage when the atomic bomb exploded but instantly killed everyone inside. The Peace Bell Time for one more stop…the Hiroshima Castle 27 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted March 29 #118137 Share Posted March 29 6 hours ago, akcruz said: For the foodies, we went back to the Culinary Institute for dinner this week. Have done lunch before but first time for dinner. Seven courses for $45 pp, we left stuffed, all wonderful food, lots of great chefs coming up the ranks. Missed pictures of a few courses, too interested in eating, by the time I remembered it wasn't photo worthy. The menu, also included was a lobster soup to start. The only item you needed to pick was dessert, of course we got 1 of each. Lobster soup, went to take a bite before remembering picture, happened more than once Chevre Carrots Surf & Turf Mousse Tart Dining room, we like to sit at the counter and watch the cooks. Great night, looking forward to the next one. This set up & your dishes looks very similar to The Test Kitchen on Virgin Voyages. Except the menu - you get a description of each dish. On VV you just get a single ingredient. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George C Posted March 29 #118139 Share Posted March 29 3 hours ago, bobmacliberty said: Looks about right to me. Multiple courses with a little time and a little wine between courses means I'd be full. Besides, I don't have the self-control to NOT overeat when they put huge portions in front of me. Huge portion sizes are a part of the reason that we've got such an obesity problem in the US, and all of the other medical issues that go with that. Portions on cruises are smaller than the past which I prefer, we just got off celebrity in a suite only time I ever indulged was on first day lunch , love the lobster roll offered only on first day and ordered two ( for the first time) was stuffed. Wife eats way more than me even though I weigh a hundred pounds plus more , she wakes up at 4:30 each morning to go to camp gladiator, I wake up about 8. Food was excellent love Le Petit Chef four course meal but small tasty courses . My weight is more from liquor. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad they preserved it as it should be a reminder to us all of the horrors of war. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel so much better, Doc advised to take it easy for at least another 2 weeks to allow everything to heal internally. Thanks for asking. @BonTexasNY So glad that the super painful days are in your past! Hoping that you continue to heal as quickly as possible! ❤️ Sue 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got it from DH, who had a light "version", since he didn't bother to get vaccinated.... Not fair, not fair at all 😢 I’m so sorry you are under the weather! I know what you mean about “not fair!” I wear sunscreen all the time, and a hat if outdoors and never lay out in the sun. DH on the other hand, has a shaved head, wears no sunscreen and plays golf etc without wearing a hat. Guess which of us needed MOHS surgery? 😖 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonTexasNY Posted March 30 #118144 Share Posted March 30 @Luckynana Maryann, I'm lucky to call her friend. @Sea Dog Greg, it sure brings me joy. With my non-green thumb, I hope it lasts as long as possible. @CrzLvr2 Sue, thank you so much. Today marks one week since surgery and it really is the first day I feel more than good! AND I hope those celebrating had a meaningful Good Friday. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks why I am horrible with flowers. Everything I get I don’t water enough and it dies.

Rare h20skibum Posted March 30 #118147 Share Posted March 30 Yesterday was a beautiful day for a hike. It has been a while since we have been on a nature trail. Somehow, when I change up the type of terrain, I find muscles that haven’t been getting a workout. The turtles were out sunning. After the heavy, all day rain we had the other day, I expected the trail to be muddy. The trail was pretty dry This is the easy walking part Stream was a little muddy. The falls were flowing full. So, I guess I may need to do a few more of these if I want to do a 20km hike with @aussielozzie18 We did 10km on an afternoon walk, only stopping briefly for a couple photos, and it took us 2 hours and 40 minutes. Pace is low when you need to watch for roots and rocks on the trail. IMG_0850.mp4 Meanwhile, my daughter and her family went hiking about 25 miles from where we were. I think I know where our next hike will be. It looks beautiful there. 25 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do more artificial flowers in our house than live ones. So many different plants are toxic to pets that I don't allow any live ones in the house. I also never allowed any chemicals on the lawn as long as I had my previous dog. I'm pretty convinced that is partly why she lived to be 16 yo which is not common at all for a Weimaraner. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That pool looks lovely. Jane you should start real estate consulting! You have a great eye for it. And talking about eye, good luck for your other eye surgery. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
